Lol that fat fuck was cut for a reason
Leagues version of Levi Aumua.

Piss off, Aumua is actually good ... unless you're the Cantabs and don't know how to use him.

I have no problem with Leicester being in consideration once he is eligible for the ABs
However - I would have an issue with him leap frogging consistent domestic performers in the midfield who don't get an opportunity at test level.
Yep. There has to be consequences for abandoning the ship.

Hot take. Caleb Tangitau bolts into the All Blacks next year.
Happy to take Highlanders bias on this, but in a world where there seem to be few impressive u25 wingers in this country, I can see him bolting in.
-
Possible bolter, ENS, assuming the fullback position is now his with Stevenson's departure. There's an impressive outside back under 25.
@WoodysRFC I wouldn't call him a bolter, should have been there this year. Fingers crossed he carries his form after his injury.

While it's obviously possible, Tangutau wasn't even very good in the NPC this year...

Lol a winger that was left completely in no man’s land defensively on numerous occasions in the NPC this year has a lot to fix if this is to become true.

Because Mark Tele'a is famed for his defence... As has been pointed out above, he possesses unique physical abilities, and it feels like a while since we've had a winger shoot through.
Even ENS is 25, which is quite old for a winger who has never played for the ABs.

Went digging into the dark Web and found Devlin's new podcast and an interview with Fozzie and he mentioned a name from the past who is at the Verblitz being Tiaan Falcon ...
... not saying he is AB level, but he was, in my opinion, at Perofeta level.
We're all woe is us about Plummer ... felt he had more to give than Harry IMO.
Saucy young fulla ...

He must have been bloody impressive in those 4 Super Rugby games he played.
He's like Kaleb Trask. All hype but yet to see what it's all about.

@African-Monkey yeah blink and you miss it right, no idea how you could form the idea he excels at SR let alone deem him good enough for the ABs.

And say that he's on par, if not better than 2 guys who have played SR for 6-8 seasons, won NPC and SR titles and represented the ABs.

Ok. I'm wrong. Again. Just felt he is indicative of a level of player we should try and retain. And at that time was on a level with Perofeta.

Just struggling to see what you could be referencing, off 4 games over 2 years? Any level of player we should probably try and retain, but wouldn't he be close to eligible for Japan by now if he was any good?
